Guys, I live in a hydro rich country. So, To develop a hydropower station, what are the major designs an electrical engineer has to do ? Also,Is there any website which provides technical drawings or detailed study on hydropower above say 1MW?
Note: Only generation part is undertaken by the contractor
Thanks in advance
 
The electrical design is actually not the major part of a hydro-electric facility. Geotechnical, civil, structural, and mechanical issues are generally much more challenging. Not to mention permitting, environmental, fish biology, water rights and licensing

You might look around here a little:
